In a perfect world, Joanna would film her cooking show in her own kitchen, which is as TV-ready as you would expect. But the filming location for Magnolia Table With Joanna Gaines is the next best thing. Chip and Joanna renovated a gristmill to make the set for their cooking show. For the uninformed on all things rural, a gristmill is one of those old barns that commonly have what appears to be a wheel outside. They were used in the production of flour.

In Chip and Joanna’s case, they renovated an old gristmill near their home in Waco, Texas in the small town of Valley Mills. It’s unclear if this will remain the primary filming location for the cooking show, but because it’s also a project of Chip and Joanna’s, it wouldn't be surprising if the couple continues to use it as the show moves forward.
